Install Windows 10 on NUC

How to install Windows 10 on an Intel NUC

I recently received this NUC from a friend and did a clean install of Windows 8 (the operating system that came with this unit). Here is a quick video talking about the unit.

After waiting a few days after I “reserved” Windows 10 and received no notifications that the download/installation is ready, I decided to download the ISO file directly and manually install Windows 10. The overall process was very easy and the shiny new operating system looks very promising.

Steps

Download the correct architecture ISO (32 or 64 bit)

In my case, I downloaded it on my Mac since I couldn’t get to the ISO download page on my Windows machine for some reason
